Vintage Sterling Stud Earrings Navajo Story Teller Style with Dwelling Scene Marked MB

Vintage Sterling Stud Earrings Navajo Story Teller Style with Dwelling Scene Marked MB-
Storyteller is a classic Navajo jewelry design that has roots in Navajo Folk Art. The storyteller design gives homage to how Navajo (Diné) culture traditionally did not have a written language, so all history and traditions are passed on orally. The scenes depicted in storyteller jewelry tell the story of the traditional Navajo way of life, which may include a hogan (traditional Navajo home), weaving, drumming, chores, horses, sheep, cooking, campfire, or Southwest scenery. The details can be quite intricate and are most commonly displayed on cuff bracelets. Storyteller jewelry is one example of how art can serve as a beautiful medium to share aspects of cultures, beyond written text.
